For your Final Project of Applied Communications 12, your task will be to design a Wikispace page which visually explain your career choice and future plans. Below is a list of requirements you will need to have on the page. Once you gather all of your information, click on the link that has your name and get started! USE RESEARCH! GATHER SPECIFIC DETAILS AND CITE THOSE SOURCES.
Requirements:
1. 10 important details about your career gleaned from websites which outline your field. Include links to those sites. Explain things the common person doesn't know. (Ex. If you are going to be a teacher, tell us the amount of college credits you need to gain your degree and how much post-bachelor's degree schooling you'll have to get to maintain that degree. Don't tell us you'll be working in a school.) These details should be just that....detailed. Use very specific explanations about skills needed, certifications required, courses, advancements, opportunities to branch out in the future, interesting daily tasks.
2. At least four pictures of people in your career right now doing various tasks
3. Complete captions for your pictures
4. Usage of colors for text, border, and page which represent your career
5. Link to or embedded music file that embodies the career choice. NEW: 6. Create a PHOTOSTORY with pictures of people currently performing your job. You will record your voice explaining what they are doing in the picture and the importance of that action to your daily tasks. These pictures and your explanations should cover your top 10 list from #1.
NEW: 7. Current Events Link: Research stories in the news about your career. Link those stories to your page with an explanation of how your career is portrayed in the story. Explain how this shows the need for your career in our society. NEW: 8: Favorite novel link: Create a link to a separate page which highlights your favorite book you read during your independent reading time this semester. Include why you liked it, why you recommend it, and an overview of the plot. Find a picture of the book's cover and copy it for the page (or take a picture of it yourself). Include other reviews of the novel from websites like Amazon, Barnes and Nobles, or Borders and the like.
NEW: 9. Create a separate link for your budget document. Add the links to the website where you found your house/apartment as well as where you found your starting salary information.

Do you want to easily add a color panel with text for your title? Use PowerPoint and save the slide as a JPEG. Upload that file to your wikipage.
Want GLITTER TEXT? Click here and look at the right margin to insert it on your page.
IN REGARDS TO RESEARCH WEBSITES.... You can sparingly use sites like Wikipedia for basic information. These can be your starting points for you to be able to delve deeper. However, MOST of your sites should be others that provide quality analysis and researchable information.
